I went on one date. It really didn't work out. I thought I liked him. But then I sat down and tried to think about us together like dating seriously and I couldn't take it.

He has this attidude that you only date one person and not think about dating anyone else. If you do then you are cheating and that is breaking the Commandment: Thou shalt not commit adultery.

I disagreed.
That was my only date ever. lol
I have been looking but not finding.

I actually agree with him, except for the adultery part.


Dating is supposed to be for preperation for marriage, and how can you prepare to be married to two different people, at the same time? Dating has been shifted greatly from its original purpose. Dating was used so the woman could choose who she wanted to marry, but this was also done only one person at a time. Courting, on the other hand, involved more than one person. Several men would court the same woman, to try and win her heart. When it got serious, then she'd only date one guy.

If dating is supposed to be so you can date more than one person at a time, then why would so much pain be caused? Good question, huh? It's because of the significance put on dating. If you want to 'date' more than one person, just hang out and be friends with several guys, and when you find one you could possibly want to marry, then date him, not the other way around.

Adultery is any act against your spouse, whether present or future.

If you have pre-marital relations, you've committed adultery against your future spouse.

What if you slip as a pre-marital couple with the person you are engaged to?
